Bye Bye

Who is this little boy and what happened to my baby??? In the matter of 2.5 weeks we now have 4 teeth (2 top & 2 bottom) so no more Jack-O-lantern, hehe, and he now waves bye bye and is starting clap hands. It's so fun to see him learn new things and it's so rewarding to know that we 'taught' him these things. He loves to make us laugh and really will actually try to do so, even if it's him just laughing at nothing. He sometimes wakes from his naps and you don't realize he is awake until you hear laughter coming from the monitor. It's so great that he wake up like that and that's usually the way he wake up, it's either that or him saying 'dada dada ooooo' in the crib.

I also can not eat anything these days in front of him without him saying 'mmmmmmm' because he wants to eat or at least try whatever it is that momma & daddy are eating. Every morning before his yogurt he has Cheerios now and he loves them! I go to get the box out of the pantry and when he sees that yellow box he squeals he gets so excited! He also loves watermelon, which isn't a huge surprise to me since I wanted to so much while I was pregnant. He now also loves fresh mozzarella, my little Italian boy! We usually cut it in chunks and put it in the salad at dinner and when he sees that salad bowl he starts getting antsy and just wants that cheese. Oh, and god help you if you start to eat it and not offer him any. I think if he could jump out of his highchair and take it from you he would!

So there it is, a summary of what our little boy is up to these days. It really is amazing how fast they grow. People told me, even when I was pregnant, how fast time flies by and to not blink because you'll miss something. Boy were they right! I feel like I blinked and the past (almost) 10 months have just zoomed past me! My little baby is looking less and less like a baby these days and more & more like a little boy. Before I know it his 1st birthday will be here ::tear:: and I will officially have a toddler! Oh no, I can't even think about that right now, I will continue to be in denial that my boy is growing up so fast!
